Cthulhu Week and Contest at FlamesRising.com! Ia, Ia!
Posted By Flames On August 16, 2010 @ 6:45 am In News,Promotions | 32 Comments
Did you know that H.P. Lovecraft was born on August 20th in 1890? We did! In honor of H.P. Lovecraft’s birthday [1], we’re having a week filled with Cthulhu! Whether you’re a gamer or a horror aficionado, we will have something for everyone.
Cthulhu Week at FlamesRising.com is special in a lot of ways because of Lovecraft’s influence on the horror genre. Over the years, we’ve covered books, movies, games and music that were either directly or indirectly related to the Cthulhu Mythos. Hands down, Cthulhu is definitely your favorite elder god. Previously published articles have included interviews with Kenneth Hite [2], Joseph Vargo [3] and A. Scott Glancy [4], as well as our coverage of the Trail of Cthulhu RPG [5], Unspeakable Words board game [6] and the Beyond the Wall of Sleep review [7]. This week, we have a lot of fun reviews and other goodies in the pipeline, including a wonderful contribution from Robin D. Laws, who provided the rules design for TRAIL OF CTHULHU!!!
If you don’t want to lose your mind, be sure to stay tuned this week as we travel to the underwater city of Ry’leh to embrace all things Cthulhu! “Ph’nglui mglw’nafh Cthulhu R’lyeh wgah’nagl fhtagn!”
Atomic Overmind Press and FlamesRising.com Team Up for Cthulhu Week Give-A-Way
[8]We are pleased to announce that Atomic Overmind Press [9] is a proud sponsor of Cthulhu Week. Artist Drew Pocza [10] and Atomic Overmind lent us their graphic design talents for the week and we’re thrilled to worship this elder god through these great images.
